Product Description

The Nikon D5100 is a 16-megapixel DX-format entry-level to mid-range digital SLR with a 3-inch tilt-swivel LCD and 1080p full HD video with selectable frame rates. The D5100 gets its image quality from the D7000 and its auto focus from the D3100, effectively splitting the difference between those two cameras.
